Abstract

The goal of this chapter is to illustrate the potential of high energy synchrotron radiation experiments for in situ studies of the processing of superconductors. We present case studies describing the Nb3Sn wire diffusion HT, the transformation HT of Nb3Al precursor wires, and the melt processing HT of Bi 2212 wires.
